  • Toxic Shame Of Complex Post Traumatic Stress

    Toxic Shame Of Complex Post Traumatic Stress
    Apr 29 2024
    As a human, you have most likely felt shame to some degree. Although it is a normal human protective emotion to keep us safe on a societal level, shame can become toxic when it persists and when we internalize the critical narrative from that shame. Toxic shame shows up in many ways, however, the way it shows up physiologically is understood the least, but the most telling. From posture, dilated pupils, tense muscles, to inflammation in the body, headaches, and diseases, it is possible to visibly see shame on a person’s body. This is a result of the body protecting itself, and there is no shame in that. However once it becomes maladaptive, and absolute “I am” statements start becoming permanent fixtures in rumination, one’s perception of self shifts, which can eventually cause serious mental and physical health issues. On today’s episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer discuss how toxic shame differs from regular shame, how toxic shame shows up, what happens in the body when it does, where toxic shame originates from, how shame and pleasure shows up in those with a history of childhood sexual abuse, and what you can do to recognize and repattern toxic shame with Neuro-Somatic Coaching. Just as toxic shame is developed, it can be undeveloped, by learning how to recognize when and how it shows up in the body, then repatterning the neural pathways in real time using NSI tools, and allowing repressed emotions to mobilize. This episode is filled with knowledge and insight you don’t want to miss. Tune in for this and more! Topics discussed in this episode: The difference between guilt and shameDifference between regular shame and toxic shameHow toxic shame affects postureHow shame is a protective responseWhat is shame inflammation and its correlation to disease states?Why mobilizing the body is crucial to process emotionsWhat is emotional attunement?Overcoupling of shame and pleasure in the case of childhood sexual abuseThe types of body boundary violationsWhat to do if you are having a toxic shame response?Why it’s important for practitioners to understand when a client is in a shame responseRepattering shame in real time Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/ Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the spring cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

  • The Inner Critic of Complex Post Traumatic Stress

    The Inner Critic of Complex Post Traumatic Stress
    Apr 22 2024
    We’ve all experienced the inner critic to some extent. You know, that voice inside of your head saying you’re not good enough, or that you’re a bad person. Where does this voice come from and why is it so vicious? Well, for people dealing with CPTS, this voice is even louder, and even more critical. The volume gets turned up ten notches, and turning it off feels like a game of tug of war. Understanding where this voice comes from and how it manifests is a crucial part to replacing the inner critic with self compassion. On this episode of Trauma Rewired, Elisabeth and Jennifer sit down to discuss the inner critic, specifically the severity of it when it comes to people with CPTS, what activates the inner critic loop cycle, what part of the brain the inner critic activates, the reflexive responses associated with the inner critic, and finally, how NSI training can help with quieting the inner critic. This type of reflexive response is created as a means of survival, the brain always wants to protect itself. However, the constant cycle of judgment, criticism, demeaning thoughts about the self becomes maladaptive when it stops serving its original purpose. There is a way to quiet the inner critic, which we want to share with you today. Tune in to find out how to turn down the volume on the inner critic, and the volume up on self compassion. Topics discussed in this episode: Characteristics of the inner critic for those experiencing CPTSWhere the inner critic lives in the brainThe fawn response and how it’s related to the inner criticWhat activates the inner critic loop?The root cause of the inner criticHow authenticity is affected by attachment styleFreeze trauma responseThe opposite of the inner criticHow NSI training can move you out of the inner critic loop cycleThe importance of creating an internal environment of safety Being exposed to other people’s inner criticGossip as an external criticCombating the external critic with self compassion If you would like to WATCH the episode and/or have closed captions, check out our Trauma Rewired YOUTUBE channel!
